First Time Setup
Setting the Clock with the AccuClock Function
To use the AccuClock function, the CD receiver must be able to receive RDS radio stations, which means an FM antenna must be connected. Be sure to connect an FM antenna before attempting to use this function (see page 14).
The very first time you turn on the CD receiver, the AccuClock function automatically sets the CD receiver’s clock based on the CT (Clock Time) information present in an RDS radio broadcast. While the clock is being set, “Wait…” flashes on the display, as shown. Note that it may take up to 5 minutes to set the clock.
When the clock has been set, the message “Clock Adjusted” scrolls across the display, then the day and time are dis- played for a while, as shown.
The AccuClock function automatically updates the clock daily at 2 A.M., 3 A.M., and 2 P.M.
If for some reason the clock cannot be set automatically, see “Setting AccuClock to Use a Specific Station” on page 47 and “Setting the Clock Manually” on page 48.
